xiphophilos 26th Sep 2022		Thanks, that's helpful. French HMV releases have a similarly large center ring, but the label name is either "Disque Gramophone" or "La Voix De Son Maître", and the label text is all in French, e.g., K-8210 and K-8732. The Swiss releases (alas, we only have 10 in our database so far) also feature the same large center label ring, but the copyright text is in French, cf. JK 2170. Only in the late 1940s does the copyright text change to English, e.g., JK 2569 but then it runs around the entire label margins (in Britain, that happened with label variant #C8 in September 1948). In Germany, the Gramophone Co. did not own the copyright to the Nipper-logo and the trademark "His Master's Voice" and used the label name "Electrola" instead. The 4 entries under a German "His Master's Voice" label that we currently have in the database need to be changed. They are export releases made in the UK that could be sold in Switzerland or Austria, but not Germany. All of them, by the way, have only a small center ring. Dutch HMV releases have a small center ring, e.g., B. 9050 A Czech-made Austrian release from 1930 has a small center sing: AM 2838; Austrian releases from later in the 1930s feature a large center ring: BA 601. The post-WW2 Austrian releases made in Austria have none, e.g., BA 873



Scratchy45 26th Sep 2022		This disc is from a collection which included a number of discs purchased in Geneva, and had a German and French language bias. There were no discs I've been able to find in it from the Scandinavian countries.



xiphophilos 26th Sep 2022		The large center pressing ring and the fonts are typical for these Swedish releases, but they are otherwise not marked as Swedish. In June 2021, we moved this one to Sweden, and it has the same size of center ring. Here is another example that we had to move from UK to Sweden (the same here, too, and here is Sundius-Larsen's Glenn Miller release). So this Chaliapin release is also a Swedish issue. I've changed the country.



Sundius-Larsen SUBS ● 26th Sep 2022		Yes i know what you mean, it was one of mine, it looked like a UK release,.And the font was the same as this one.



xiphophilos 26th Sep 2022		Could this be a Swedish release? I seem to remember one Swedish HMV release on a magenta label that looked in every respect like a British release but used different fonts for the catalog number.



scrough ● 24th Sep 2022		DB 1701 was released in September 1932 as part of the British section of the DB International series. But, of course, any HMV branch could choose to add any of this series to their catalogue. Fuller details can be downloaded {here}.



Scratchy45 24th Sep 2022		I've been possibly overcautious here. Entered as "unknown country" on the basis of label layout, representation of catalogue number etc. This may well just be an export issue that didn't fall into a neat category. Recorded 1932 in Paris, also issued on Victor Red Seal (7715). That USA cat# is quoted rather than the 32-2837/32-2863 recording reference more normally quoted on the label.
